WASHINGTON. DEC. 81, 1887.
"EIGBr-PAcE" AND "rouK-rAGE

The immediate necessity for an eight
page paper being likely to cease with the
close Of the heavy advertising season,
THE Carrie will hereafter appear in u
foar-pagc form, excepting upon saiur-
Gays, when we shall issue double
sheet edition, rs also upon other occa-
sions when the pressure OF business shall
seem to justify the enlargement.
The great majority Of the readers OF
1mE CRiTlc are familiar with its original
four-pagc form, and we are satisfied
that in this shape they will like us best.
The paper will be printed from new and
legiblc type, and its columns. as will be
seen, are Of the standard width. II will
contain fully rs much news as before, will
be handsome in appearance and more
convenient TO handle and lack but little
of the double size in amount of general
reading matter Special attention will
he given TO the Saturday edition to rem
der it the leading paper Of Washington
in point of diversified interes, and liter
ary merit.
Whether Washington is an "eight.
page town" or "four-page town" is Il
proposition that we do moi care to con-
slider from the standpoint Of criticism
or comparisons; but that the National
Capital, with its quarter Of million in
habitants and large reading population,
il an "eight-page town" in the sense of
knowing what good newspaper is and
apprcciating it at its true merits with
out regard to its number OF pages, We
entertain no doubt.
The size of newspaper does not de-
tcrmine its value. 1t may contain
twelve pages and be very stupid, or only
four and be very bright.
Ii may be stated as u rule of this rapid
age that no man wants more Of Il daily
paper than he can comfortably read.
The great quadruple, scxtuplc and
sometimes septuple dailics of New York
and some other cities are more or les.
warranted by their immense advcr.
tising patronage at certain seasons of tho
year, but to the general reader they arc
wearisomc. They contain much more
matter than can readily be absorbed
even if it was all worth read ing, whicl
is seldom the case. The man who labor,
through the whole gets to the end of hi,
journey with much more fatigue thar
profit.
This much by way of depression.
The point'wo wish to make is that tn,
daily newspaper depends for its acccpta
lility with the public rather upon thu
quality than quantity of its contents
and we are satisfied, from an obscrva
ton and experience of some years IL
this city, that, as between papers of diff
ferent forms, the four-page paper, which
combines in half the space all the ex
cellencies and attractive features of NJ
eight-page paper, is almost UNIVERSAL,
preferred.

IS THE CONTESTED WILL case of John
Amory Goldman of Boston the jury finds
the testator OF unsound mind, having
suffered himself to be systematically
swindled for n series OF years by
a cold-blooded adventures, who pre-
tended great affection for him.
He furnished the most striking ex-
empliiication on record Of the familiar
adage that there no fool like an old fool.
Mr.. MoCRgARY's bill providing for the
report of appropriation bills at such
time during each session as will permit
Of action prior to the bustlc and confu-
sion of the adjournment period, is cal
culated to facilitate the public business,
and on that account if no other should
be promptly passed. 1t is high time
that Congress were done with its an
nual rush and crush and freeze-out.

an assault by an unidentified tramp on n
gentleman of that city, US: Probably
ho was one Of those beautiful birds of

the year"
Are We TO infer from this animadyer-
sion that the Times desires to once more
revive sectional differences?
SOME OF THE DEMOCRATS would drum
Mr.. Randall out of the party, but while
sticks arc plenty in the party there's
nobody strong enough to beat the drum.
The GREAT STRIKE OF the Reading
